Clay Pigeons^t³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

4/11

Winning pointer who made a successful bumper debut for Emmet Mullins over 19f and having changed hands for €95,000, he landed the odds with a bit to spare at Catterick a month ago. Will outclass these if taking to hurdling.

Form: P/F11-1

Kampari³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: K Brogan| T: L Horsfall

150/1

Half-brother to 3 winners but no impact in a quarter of bumpers. Up in trip for hurdles debut starting out for new yard.

Form: 9-600

King Jon Oliver¹⁰⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: R T Dunne| T: O Murphy| OR: 118| BF

5/2

Well held in a bumper but sold placed efforts over hurdles either side of that wen trained by Mrs Lorna Fowler in Ireland. Since transferred to a powerful yard and slight step up in trip can only help his cause, too.

Form: 30-2

Lawsky²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Alex Chadwick⁽³⁾| T: James Owen

66/1

No impact in a brace of bumpers during the spring of 2024. Heavily backed switched to hurdling starting out for James Owen over C&D last month but he was never really involved.

Form: 00/4

Oneinthewell²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Nathan Howie⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 102| BF

20/1

Leopardstown bumper winner on debut, but well held next time and little promise first 2 starts for Thomas Cooper. Switched to James Owen and a bit more like it of late, but he's vulnerable in maiden company.

Form: 9P0-557

Callmesusie²³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Charlie Hammond| T: L Allan| D

200/1

Just the one win from 14 starts in points and has displayed more temperament than ability under Rules, refusing to race on last month's hurdles debut.

Form: 2F324-R

Masked Mistress³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Tom Cannon| T: J & S Best

12/1

Masked Marvel filly who has won a couple of bumpers this season. Not up to listed level at Cheltenham but caught the eye held up on hurdles debut at Plumpton a month ago, finishing with running left. More to come at some point.

Form: 31103

Forecasts

Clay Pigeons (4/11), King Jon Oliver (5/2), Masked Mistress (12/1), Oneinthewell (20/1), Lawsky (66/1), Kampari (150/1), Callmesusie (200/1)

CLAY PIGEONS brings well-above average bumper form to the table and given the yard he represents, he's sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut. He should remain unbeaten under Rules, for all King Jon Oliver and Masked Mistress are interesting for different reasons.
